Is, first, find a reliable place to purchase it, a store that youve got faith in, a place
where you can get satisfaction in, get your money back if you want it that place Is
the M. K. Now, as to the garment itself, you don't want a back number, you don't
want an ordinary, common-place, cheap John coat that smacks of by 'gone times. On
the contrary, you want a coat that's UP-TO-DATE, a coat that's made of new substan
tial fabrics, a coat that's got the snap of a made-to-order make, cut in this season's
style, for this season's wear, custom tailoring work at one-half tailoring prices, that's

We've got coats for less money than $7.19, and good ones, too, but at $7.19
we've been selling stylish Beaver Cloths of the most approved cut, in black,
blue and brown all made with deep facing and satin piping and good
trimming.
Superior Kerseys and Beavers as well as other fabrics of this class, are
found in the Overcoats we are selling at $10.00. The natty appearance of
these garments will not only please you, the workmanship surprises you, and
the price delight you, but you'll have a garment that we're proud to sell,
and you'll be proud to wear.
At $15.00 you can take your choice from some of the finest fabrics in rogue
this fall. Imported English Cheviots, Kerseys, Whip-cords, Covet cloths, etc.,
that are not to be found at ordinary stores. We select the goods and they
are made to our special order, that's why we know what we are talking about
when we say they are the best coats you can buy for $15 co.

We have closed one of the most successful sales we have had, not because there was a great profit in it,
but the hearty response to our call for the King Bargains we had to give the patrons. There were times
during this sale when our increased force of help could not serve the crowds as well and promptly as we
would like to. We therefore beg to state, should there be cause for complaint, or if Your Purchase Is Not
Satisfactory In Every Particular Bring It Back And Get Your Money Back. There are a few small lots in
the King suits left, if you can find your size, take your pick at the special sale price, $2.98, $3.98, $5, 6.75.
